Another bird I can't ID but I believe all those black things on the water are Brine Flies. Fascinating place, that's for sure. I wish we had more time to investigate.

As always, comments and suggestions are appreciated...

An Avocet - thanks. The flies were really quite amazing too. They wouldn't land on you and moved forward on the shore in waves as you walked thru them.
